Hey fellow leftys!
Already a Union Member, but thought I'd pop in and embrace my fellow brethren.
And an excuse to show pics of my latest lefty. (Please forgive my lack of photography skills).
SX P-bass copy, stripped and refinished neck.

I hope it is not inappropriate to post this here but I wanted to inform my lefthanded friends that there is an opprotunity to get a great deal on a lefty Bach Non-reverse Thunderbird clone.
We are arranging for a group buy of 20 instruments (this is the minimum necessary to do te production run. We are very close to the required number and I wanted to let as many lefties know about this.
These are very good quality instruments at a very good price. The details can be had at the following websites.

Here is the link to Bach, the maker of these basses

There is a very extensive thread on a group buy of righthanded NR T-birds on the Last Bass Outpost site. It should give those interested much info about the instruments.
Cheers!
...Moderators, if this post is inappropriate or in the wrong place please let me know. I have no vested interest in the Bach company and I am only involved as a participant in the group buy. I am posting this solely to inform fellow lefties who may be interested in aquiring this style of bass.

Looks great! I'm now the proud owner of the box that bass came in.
Hey, thought I'd peek in here after a hiatus (from the forum, not from playing). I'm on the precipice of replacing my Carvin with a warped neck with a MIA Fender Jazz. That is, unless someone's got a left-handed Pedulla they want to unload. 
I had a MIM Fender Jazz stolen from me in 1994 and can't wait to get back to the Jazz.
So, what should I do with this left-handed neck-through koa Carvin with a neck so warped I can fit my fist between the strings and the fretboard? (OK, it's not that bad, but it feels that way when I try to depress the strings.) Make a lamp out of it? The case is nice...

I had not, expecting that the cost of repair would be too large a fraction of what I paid for it, but I did send them an email when I saw your reply. Seven days later, still haven't heard back.
I forgot about my meager little lefty collection and it had to come after a family pic that crabby has -

Here's my latest lefty addition:
The bridge was junk and the p-pickup was just about as bad, but some spare parts later and under 100 for the thing in the first place, I got a new fake Charvel Warrior playtoy for those lethal metal moments.
